CHECK'D
Hip Hop / Alternative
Check'd is a politically charged hip-hop group that spawned out of Portland, Oregon in May, 2006. Since then, Check'd has recorded an album - titled ' Project: Reconstruction (P:RC)' - and does shows regularly in the Eugene and Portland areas.
Check'd was founded by MC's Onegin Offegan, Jon the Rappist, and King Oliver. Together, they recorded the 'Check'd EP' in July, 2006. In December of 2006, trumpeter Your Funk joined the band and helped record 'The Non-Violent Fist EP.'
In the summer of 2007, Testament joined the group as an MC to complete the quintet that recorded Check'd's first full length album - Project: Reconstruction. P:RC marks the first full length release on Haunted House Records, the label owned by King Oliver and Onegin Offegan of Check'd.
Recently, Jon the Rappist has left Check'd. Also, Your Funk grabbed an excellent gig on a cruise ship for the next several months, which means that Check'd will be performing as an incomplete group.
Check'd is:
Onegin Offegan
Testament
King Oliver
